When using Windows Server as a print server over time the queues eventually begin to fill up. Print jobs are sent one day when a printer is offline and days later after the printer is turned back on sometimes dozens of print jobs start coming from the printer. The other issue that arises is caused by this backup of print jobs, slowly the print server will use disk space until in space cases it just runs out. Here is a simple PowerShell script to clear up the stale print jobs.
$TooOld = (Get-Date).AddDays(-2)
Get-WmiObject Win32_PrintJob | Where-Object { $_.ConvertToDateTime($_.TimeSubmitted) -lt $TooOld } | Foreach-Object { $_.Delete() }
This can be setup as an easy scheduled task to take of ever needing to worry about this issue in the future.
